Question 4 • Common Core ELA 11 - ELA3011 IC

Which is a feature of dialect?

Answer
A
standard pronunciation and definitions
B
informal language used in a specific location
C
universal language not specific to one group
D
formal language used to describe a certain topic

Explanation

A dialect is a form of a language associated with a particular region or social group, and it can have its own vocabulary, grammar, and pronunciation. Choice B, “informal language used in a specific location,” is the closest match. A dialect is not necessarily informal, but it is specific to a place or group rather than universal.
